What's the temperature range on this refrigerator?

The adjustable temperature range is 2° C to 15° C, with a resolution of 0.1° C/0.2° F and C°/F° switchable display. Stability is +/- 0.2° C based on the simulator ballast, and max cabinet air temperature variation is +/- 1.0° C.

Temp Controller tab
What are the exterior dimensions and weight?

Exterior is 25″ wide, 29″ deep, and 66″ high. Product weight is 187 lbs and shipping weight is 227 lbs.

Details tab
How much clearance does it need for installation?

The refrigerator requires a minimum 2″ of clearance at the back and sides for proper ventilation.

Temp Controller tab
What refrigerant does it use and how does it defrost?

It uses EPA SNAP compliant R600a Isobutane, a hydrocarbon natural refrigerant, with a hermetic variable speed compressor. Defrost is cycle defrost.

Refrigeration System tab
What alarms and remote monitoring options are included?

It has customizable audible and visual alarms with silent mode, adjustable alarm delays for door, temperature, and power loss, and ring-back functionality. External connectivity includes remote alarm contacts and 4-20mA output, plus a high capacity 12V battery backup for controller temperature and alarm display and logging only (no cooling active).

Temp Controller tab
What are the electrical requirements?

The unit is rated at 2 Amps and uses a NEMA 5-15 plug. The facility must provide 110 – 120V AC, a 15A breaker, and a NEMA 5-15 receptacle.

Details tab
What is a Variable Speed Compressor (VSC)?

A variable speed compressor (VSC) self-adjusts to cooling demand instead of running at one fixed speed, giving greater efficiency and more cost savings than a traditional fixed-speed model. On this unit it works alongside the microprocessor temperature controller, which provides the precise temperature control.
